Composite tow specimens can prove to be difficult to test due to their geometry and delicate nature. Properties such as tensile strength and modulus are determined by loading specimens to failure. As in many mechanical testing scenarios, measuring strain accurately is vital to ensuring correct results.

The AutoX 750 is a high-resolution, long-travel automatic contacting extensometer. It can be mounted onto any electromechanical 3300, 5500, or 5900 table top and floor model systems, as well as LX, DX, HDX, and KN static hydraulic testing systems. It is well suited for applications involving plastics, metals, biomedical, composites, elastomers, and more. The AutoX has a maximum travel of 750 mm and accuracy of ± 1 µm.
